Regurgitation Problem Update

mrkent May 08, 2009 08:05 AM

An update on the '08 snow corn that was regurgitating. (See post below.) At Kathy's suggestion I purchased some Nutribac. I gave one dose with a syringe, and then occasionally in the drinking water. Within 3 days, it started eating again, without any regurgs! So far it has eaten 4 pinky heads. It is hard to be patient, so after the 3rd meal I offered a whole pinky which was refused. Back to a pinky head, which was eaten last night. Its almost like the snake knows better than I do!

Thanks Kathy and Don for your suggestions. I have the temps right, and plenty of hiding places.

Attached are a couple of my favorite pictures. Hatchlings from my first breeding in 2004.

That's great news! Glad to see that regurge problem taken care of!

Yep. I will just have to take it slow with this one before I can expect it to eat enough to start growing.
